“Confirmed”? Not really, but he’s the largest man in the Seven Kingdoms, and, a short time after he gets poisoned and disappears, another man who no one’s ever heard of appears completely out of nowhere to get appointed to the Kingsguard and just happens to be just as big as the Mountain.

The show’s creators have implied that GRRM told them that Shireen’s death actually is something that will happen in the books. Time will tell on that one. I agree it’s not something Early Stannis would do, but what’s the point of a character arc if the character doesn’t change throughout the journey? Stannis is slowly…

He doesn’t need to be a Targaryen, he read all the books about dragons including how to train them. It was one of his obsessions.

Don’t be scared. He spent his life obsessing over dragons and read all the books about them. Who do you think is gonna help Dany train them? :D

He’s going to build the wall higher and make the Wildlings pay for it.

Isaac Hempstead Wright looks uncannily like John Oliver now. For a second there I thought there was gonna be a GoT/Last Week Tonight crossover.

Everybody in the Young Ned and Bros scene is left-handed. I’ll get back to you as soon as I finish the wild theory that this calls for.

One thing I think everyone has missed is that whether Jon is dead or just in a coma, members the Night’s Watch conspired to assassinate their Lord Commander. They’ve got to destroy the evidence, and kill everyone else who knows what they did (starting with Davos), otherwise they’re royally fucked.

I don’t believe I’ve ever seen the word “rectum” rendered in such a tacky, saccharine script.

Too late! Gawker Media has already sent a crate of CPAC freebies to your house.

As a graphic designer, AAAAAGH, AGH, MAKE IT STOP, JESUS GOD.

This is what every Southerner thinks about Confederate history taught everywhere but the South.

I know it’s been done to death, but Charlize Theron was absolutely stunning in her red, cut-to-the-navel dress. But, you know, it’s Charlize. She could wear a gunny sack and it would be stunning.

Gotta add this one. I love Jenny Beaven not giving a flying fuck about Oscars formal wear. Totally badass.

MSNBC made the decision last year that they needed to compete with Fox. The lower rungs were told that they were going to seek more “moderate” programming, but the upper rungs were already planning a Trumpalooza. I hope they fall on their face (except for Maddow, long live Maddow.) There’s already a glut of white,…
